Who are the thought leaders?

You won't find the answer to the question in the title; the one list, referenced only in passing, is highly suspect, and includes at least one person no longer among the living. What you will find is a fun take-down of the concept of thought leadership, including especially an analysis of the BETT 2021 poster and quip from the NY Times that a thought leader is "a sort of wannabe highflying, good-doing yacht-to-yacht concept peddler." At the same time, Philip Kerr writes that "we don't have enough thought leaders in ELT" and also that "for more specifically ELT thought leaders, perhaps we should let them stay anonymous."
